The creamy and chewy cookies and cream base is made up of coconut flour, almond flour, smooth nut or seed butter, a sticky sweetener of choice, unsweetened applesauce, and some milk or liquid of choice to firm up

These protein bars are very similar to my white chocolate macadamia nut cookie version- The only difference is that I tried it out using all three vanilla protein powders (this vegan protein powder, this casein protein powder, and this paleo protein powder) and tried a new ‘white chocolate’ method- A simple blend of coconut butter, coconut palm sugar, lemon juice and a dash of milk to thin out made it possible

The roll, made up of sweet yeast bread, sour cream, butter and eggs, poppy seeds, walnuts, raisins and almonds, is also sometimes spiked with rum and drizzled with lemon juice and apricot preserves (for the glaze)
